Tanya Jackson+FollowSharks and gators share Hilton Head watersSharks and an alligator hanging out together in Hilton Head? Locals and vacationers were stunned to see this wild mix right by the dock—massive sharks cruising around while a chill gator lounged nearby. Usually, these creatures stick to their own turf, but the brackish waters here brought them face to face. No epic showdown happened, just a peaceful (and slightly bizarre) coexistence. It’s got everyone talking: Are we seeing new wildlife behavior, or is this just a rare fluke? If you were there, would you still dip your toes in? #Pets #HiltonHead #Wildlife10Share
Joshua Townsend+FollowAlligator and sharks spotted together in Hilton HeadAn alligator gliding right past a group of sharks at a Hilton Head dock left diners stunned and social media buzzing! This rare wildlife encounter happened outside a busy waterfront restaurant, where vacationers got a front-row seat to nature’s unexpected show.

With both creatures calmly going their separate ways, it’s a reminder of just how wild and unpredictable Lowcountry life can be. Have you ever witnessed anything like this in our waterways? Let’s hear your stories! #Pets #HiltonHead #Wildlife11Share
Michelle York+FollowShark Bites: What’s Really Going On?Shark bites in South Carolina and Florida have everyone buzzing—two people bitten on Hilton Head in one week, and a 9-year-old girl in Florida nearly lost her hand while snorkeling! But here’s the wild part: experts say shark attacks are still super rare (you’re more likely to get struck by lightning). If you’re hitting the beach, remember: swim in groups, avoid shiny stuff, and stick to lifeguard zones. Sharks are out there, but attacks? Not as common as you think! #SharkBite #BeachSafety #HiltonHead #Science111Share
